The Green Shirts are coming...to help Schoharie County rebuild

Starting Monday, March 12, green-shirted volunteers will be going door to door in Schoharie County and the surrounding region to document the needs of local residents affected by the Irene and Lee floods. It's the first step in a longer process of getting help and advice to those who need it.

The volunteers are a group from the Christian Reformed World Relief Committee (CRWRC), which is working with regional flood-recovery organization Schoharie Area Long Term (SALT) on flood recovery efforts in the area.

Volunteers will also be staffing walk-in sites where area residents can drop in.
